Considering the cancellation of my Badlands

[BadSquatch21]

If what you say is true then the Sasquatch package on the Badlands makes it the tallest trim correct?

No, it would be the same as any other Sasquatch package. The Bilstein shocks plus some 0.6" lift and the 35's. The height difference I'm referring to is with the tire sizes taken out of the calculation.

Remember guys, the sooner these guys cancel their reservation, the quicker we get our Bronco if they were ahead of us.

People like to complain. I have this discussion with my kids and my staff all the time.
"So, you are saying you won't take advantage of this because it is not your ideal? And with no other option that meets your ideal, instead you will do without completely? Perfection is the enemy of Execution."

Exactly. Sometimes you just gotta go full send and know that nothing will be perfect.

does the badlands comes with 4.7 gears regardless of engine size?

I can't see to find any literature that shows 4.7 gears with manual.

So get 33 BFG stock and take them off immediately. Badlands stick 2.3 has the 4.7 gears anyways in the axles. 33 BFGs AT will sell in a heartbeat. It's a tire swap away from squatch

Yes according to the spec sheets cord put out. Manual Badlands is 4.7 even with 33s

How will ford account for the speedometer between 33s and 35s on the same gearing of 4.7?

It's all the the programming for speedo calibration. Just changing a parameter with the scanner

There’s a lot of bad information here and lousy suppositions with facts not known.
It be knife to know the angles on a stick badlands.
Ford boast the angles on the Sasquatch and the crawl of the 7sp and did not share you can’t combine them!

Years back, speedo was driven by the anti lock brake sensor which monitored rpm's of the tire and caculated MPH from a known tire revolutions per mile. Change tires, input the new tires rpmile, presto, correct speedo.
Took 5 minutes, they billed you an hour minimum.

Ford can't offer a V8 and Jeep will only do it for 1-2 years Max. You are forgetting that the Fed gov has a sliding EPA average gas mileage mandate for auto manufacturer. This was suspended in 2016, but most likely coming back in 2021. If it was not canceled it would require an average of around 30 now, and soon 50. Basically it was trying to force us all into electric cars to save the environment. This is just for US, but other countries already are tightening up emission requirements. V8's unfortunately are going away. BTW my commuter car is a 6.2L LS3 which I plan to trade in on Bronco.

Even hybrid SUV's don't get 50. Only the smaller cars do.

Why can’t ford offer a v8? EPA regs?
